World Team Tennis
Pat Purcell received the Delaine Mast Award for WTT League Director of the Year from Delaine Mast and Billie Jean King at the WTT Nationals in Palm Springs in November, 2001. Pat now has one of the largest recreational WTT program in the US and is one of the top ten league directors.
WORLD TEAM TENNIS
The indoor fall season will begin in August and September. A team is at least two men, two women. You must be 18 or older. World Team Tennis leagues consist of at least four teams. The format consists of six no-ad sets played on two courts: men’s and women’s doubles, men’s and women’s singles, and two sets of mixed doubles. A match is won by the team with the most total games won at the end of the final set. Local league winners go on to a National Qualifier, and National Qualifier winners go on to the National Championships. Players of different levels can play on the same team as long as the average of the top two male players and top two female players is the same as the league level. For example, a 4.5 male player can play on a 4.0 team as long as the other man is a 3.5 and the two women are 4.0’s. A complete list of rules is available at www.wtt.com. Current end of year 2021 USTA ratings are used for the league. If you do not have a USTA rating, you can self rate.
The St. Louis WTT leagues are run by Purcell Tennis Enterprises, LLC.
